New Investor Introduction
Hey everyone!
My name is Isaac Apsey and I am new to the BiggerPockets forum (as you can probably tell by the title). I have been reading, watching, and listening to BiggerPockets content for the past year; now I am excited to made the switch from learning about real estate investing and take action!
In the next year I hope to have scored a MFH for long-term rental around the beltline. I know I have a lot of things to get in order beforehand so I wanted to reach out and poll the locals! I'd love some recommendations for:
- Mortgage Lenders/Brokers familiar with FHA loans
- Real estate lawyers
- Realtors willing talk comps/sale prices/the market
- Opportunities particularly on the west-side of Raleigh (Raleigh, Durham, Cary, Apex, etc)
My budget for this MFH is $400,000 which I hope to use an FHA loan to purchase. With this budget I expect to only really find duplex homes, but I am open to any MFH. Let me know if that price sounds reasonable (assuming a good deal of course).
I am looking forward to meeting with investors in the area! Please don't hesitate to reach out to me. I would love to grab a coffee and talk deals!

Welcome to BP! I'm out here in Cary myself. We have a local in person meetup this Wednesday in Raleigh. Do you have the details?
